Chapter 869: Toying



Everyone opted to use their full strength from the start. Although they didn’t know where the fire lotus would appear yet, all of them coincidentally chose to obstruct Lin Xun.

Because removing Lin Xun from the equation was the only way for them to have a chance to compete for the fire lotus when it appeared.

To their surprise, however, Lin Xun returned to his original position at this moment instead of continuing forward.

"This..."

The other supreme heaven prides were stunned and had no choice but to forcibly stop themselves.

Lin Xun pretended to be surprised and frowned. "What are you guys doing? I was just tired of sitting so I stood up to move a little. Were you guys trying to attack me?"

Everyone’s faces turned somewhat ugly, especially Sha Liuchan, who could not help but shout, "Lin Xun, what’s the meaning of this?"

Lin Xun grinned. "Chill, I was just playing with you guys."

"You..." Everyone was so angry that they almost vomited blood. How could they have anticipated that Lin Xun would use this opportunity to make fun of them?

"I didn\'t expect that you guys would be so cooperative. It honestly surprised me." Lin Xun smiled brightly.

As he spoke, he suddenly moved again and rushed in another direction.

Wu Duanya roared, "Keep alert, he’s trying to trick us, stop him!"

There was no need for his reminder. The other supreme heaven prides did not hesitate to act the moment they saw Lin Xun move again.

They icily chuckled inside. How laughable, does he think such a silly trick would work on us?

However, they were soon stupefied because Lin Xun once again returned to his original spot and mockingly looked at them without saying anything.

His mocking expression made Sha Liuchan, Wu Duanya, and the others so angry that their faces turned white with rage.

Tricked again!

How evil! How can someone like him exist?

Even the usually mild-tempered Li Qinghuan could not help but frown and softly sigh. "Brother Lin, you’re being rather childish. If word of this spreads, it will only hurt your reputation."

Lin Xun laughed. "I also want to ask you guys whether it feels shameful to gang up on me?"

Wu Duanya murderously said, "Lin Xun, aren\'t you worried that we\'ll unite to eliminate you first?"

"Heh heh, you can try."

Lin Xun appeared indifferent.

Everyone had very stormy expressions. They didn\'t want to be led around by the nose and toyed with again because it was far too humiliating.

Hence, Wu Duanya’s suggestion sounded quite appealing.

Eliminating Demon God Lin was equivalent to removing the most troublesome competitor.

Swish!

However, Lin Xun moved again before they could make a decision.

Still trying to screw with us?

Everyone was furious. Did he think they were three-year-olds who would play along with his childish antics?

It was at this moment that Li Qinghuan’s pupils suddenly shrank and he loudly shouted, "Crap, move!"

Everyone was stunned, only to see that Lin Xun didn’t return to his position like before. Instead, he moved like lightning toward a certain spot a dozen feet away.

Damnit!

They immediately returned to their senses. He tricked us!

Everyone moved without any hesitation and rushed toward the place Lin Xun was heading to stop him.

Unfortunately, it was already too late. They could only watch as Lin Xun turned into a blur and reappeared with a fire lotus in his hand.

The most surprising part was that the fire lotus had nine petals. It seemed to be surrounded by a drizzle-like haze made from light and shone brightly like a magnificent and gorgeous sun. It was definitely a peerless herb!

"Put it down!"

Sha Liuchan’s, Wu Duanya’s, and the others’ eyes immediately turned red with almost maniacal anger.

They were already pissed off from being toyed with earlier and were now a step too slow to react, allowing Lin Xun to snatch away a nine-petal fire lotus. It made them feel as if they were going to explode from anger.

Rumble!

There was no need for any discussion. They attacked with their full power and unleashed a barrage of secret arts, creating a flood of terrifying light that rushed straight toward Lin Xun.

It was an astonishing scene, to say the least.

After all, it was the combined might of a dozen supreme heaven prides targeting a single individual. The sight of it startled the other experts on the ice mountain, causing their expressions to change drastically as they gasped in shock.

However, Lin Xun had already rushed down the mountain the moment he seized the fire lotus, causing the horrifying bombardment to miss.

Although the attacks missed, they caused the entire mountain, sky, and land to shudder violently.

"Trying to escape? Dream on!"

Wu Duanya was still seeing red and immediately charged after Lin Xun.

The chase soon reached the mountain foot where Lin Xun finally came to a stop, causing Wu Duanya to sneer sinisterly. "Why aren’t you running anymore?"

Lin Xun turned around and displayed a sunny smile. "Why do I have to run? Is there a need to run if you’re the only one I have to deal with?"

Wu Duanya froze and soon realized something that caused him to turn rigid. He stiffly looked around and indeed found that he was the only one who had chased...

Nearby, many experts were looking at him in pity.

Wu Duanya’s heart shivered, dumbfounded by the realization. All of his anger had already evaporated, replaced by indescribable fear and sullenness.

How could he have anticipated that the others would have no team spirit and not chase together with him!?

The thought of facing Demon God Lin alone made his expression become very interesting to look at.

Lin Xun kindly advised, "Go back and don\'t be so rash next time."

Wu Duanya\'s expression fluctuated indeterminately, feeling humiliated and embarrassed. He almost wished he could just ignore everything and fight Lin Xun to death.

However, Lin Xun merely smiled and left.

Wu Duanya was left behind in an awkward position, unable to follow or withdraw. If there were a crack in the ground, he would have already dived in to hide himself out of shame.

It was too humiliating!

When the supreme heaven prides near the summit area saw Lin Xun leave, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It felt as if they were sending away a horrible plague.

The thought of how so many of them together had ultimately failed to stop Demon God Lin and were instead repeatedly toyed around by him made them feel frustrated, embarrassed, and sullen.

Damned Demon God Lin, we’ll make you pay one day!

This thought was unanimous among Sha Liuchan and the others.

The experts on the other parts of the ice mountain could not help but inwardly wet their lips at the series of events. In fact, it even made them feel like admiring and worshiping Lin Xun a little.

He had seized several fire lotuses amidst such fierce competition and ultimately came out unscathed. Such prowess and style were indeed deserving of the title Demon God Lin!

"He’s a truly difficult individual to deal with..."

At the summit, there was a rare look of graveness on Li Qinghuan’s face.

Previously, he had only been aware of Lin Xun\'s terrifying combat power and did not fear him much.

However, the earlier events made Li Qinghuan realize that Lin Xun was an extremely formidable opponent!

Not only did he possess overwhelming combat power, but he was also resourceful, bold, and able to decisively retreat after obtaining a few fire lotuses. The last point alone made Li Qinghuan see him in a different light.

Li Qinghuan knew that Lin Xun would incur everyone’s wrath if he stayed. It would become impossible for him to obtain any more fire lotuses, and he would instead be targeted by everyone.

Evidently, Lin Xun also realized this and chose to leave as a result.

However, this was precisely what scared Li Qinghuan.

Any other cultivator would likely be unable to control their desire if they had Demon God Lin’s strength. Hence, they would likely opt to stay instead and continue vying for the fire lotuses.

However, it was clear that Demon God Lin was different from the norm.

Li Qinghuan inwardly muttered, "I hope we will not encounter him again in the final competition..."

……

"I would not have obtained such a haul without your guidance. This is for you." When Lin Xun left, he called over Nie Yian, who had been camping at the foot of the mountain, and gave him a seven-petal fire lotus.

Nie Yian was greatly alarmed and somewhat surprised. He had not expected Lin Xun to give him such a gift.

He was already crying inside because he had been unable to secure a single fire lotus. Hence, he was deeply touched by Lin Xun’s actions.

"Take it. I am a person who repays kindness with kindness and hatred with hatred. The previous misunderstanding has been resolved long ago, so you do not need to worry about it anymore."

"Thank you!" Nie Yian took a deep breath and earnestly thanked him.

If there was any resentment left towards Lin Xun, all of it would disappear at this moment. In fact, he even began to admire Lin Xun\'s character.

Lin Xun chuckled and bid goodbye to Nie Yian.

He had to find a safe place to absorb the three remaining fire lotuses and find out what kind of dao art inheritance was hidden within them.

Shortly after departing, Lin Xun frowned as if he had recalled something and began retracing the path he came from.

……

"How unbelievable...."

Nie Yian was still somewhat dazed. Until now, he still couldn\'t believe that Lin Xun would so casually give him a seven-petal fire lotus.

After all, it was a top-tier divine herb that most definitely contained an extraordinary dao art!

"Leave your fire lotus behind and we\'ll let you off!" Suddenly, a group of experts with icy expressions approached and surrounded Nie Yian.

Nie Yian\'s expression changed drastically. He hurriedly stored the fire lotus and sternly said, "Are you guys trying to take advantage?"

"Cut the bullshit. You’re a successor of the Blue Dipper Sect yet you’ve colluded with Demon God Lin to steal the fire lotuses. What a disgrace to your sect. We’ll give you three breaths. If you do not hand it over, don’t blame us for being rude!"

The group consisted of both male and female heaven prides, and their tones were very forceful.

They had been camping at the foot of the mountain since the beginning and had witnessed the scene of Nie Yian and Lin Xun arriving and leaving together.

Therefore, after seeing that Nie Yian and Lin Xun had separated, they immediately rushed in to take advantage.

After all, it was a seven-petal fire lotus!

Such a tempting treasure was more than worth the risk!

Nie Yian\'s heart immediately turned cold. He never imagined the fire lotus he had unexpectedly obtained would possibly be taken away in the blink of an eye!
